Yeah he can but at £96 for the rod alone with labour on top I think hes a little OTT.. that why I wanna buy the rod, approx £45 and get somebody to do it.. (I've nothing against John personally, dont know the fella, just dont know why anything linked to Lambrettas has to be ramped up)

got mine done there, it is literally a couple of miles from my house.... but I'd recommend cse for any automotive engineering work.
I supplied the rod, can't recall the cost to split, fit, weld & true, but it was very reasonable
